Answer 4

I find something to do that makes me happy.

The things I usually do are:

Buy a new outfit, because I love clothes.

Maybe look at clothes online, too. :)

I listen to upbeat music.

Call or IM some of my friends.

I exercise a little.

Read some of my favorite book.

Watch some of my favorite TV shows. (Gossip Girl!)

Basically, just do whatever makes you feel happy.

Answer 5

it is really hard to deal with this feeling but i would try to have friends ( as many as i can )....

Answer 6

I don't know, I haven;t been lonely in so long.  Seriously, when I'm alone, it doesn't bother me. I can be just as content and happy with people or without.

Answer 7

I 'give back'. If you need something, give that away...IE friendship, companionship, respect etc.

I do some volunteer work...it does good for others, but you meet people and feel good about yourself.

I take a class

I call an old friend or send email

I may do a random act of kindness...IE I might send a check to a charity or keep my ear to the ground to see if someone is in need and help them.

There are many ways to deal with loneliness, find something that suits you and reach out.

Good Luck!
